I just blew my starboard engine up so I am looking for parts.
Would be happy to come down and yank them out.
Let me understand you just want the drives? is that correct?
If they are removed can I take the rest of the burnt hull or would you prefer I take the engines out at your place?
I see a couple of other guys are interested as well so I don't mean to cut anyone's grass, but if the others decide not to come please let me know.

First fire hard to tell, boat was plugged into house while charging for two months with no issues (was in hospital most of summer fighting lung cancer) then took to marina for a few hours, they plugged it in to their ac and battery charger area looked like it fried...boat was still fixable... town/marine fire people put out and i took out of water next day and brought to my mechanic. The next day boat went up completly with 40 ft flames...We beleive fire company never cut batteries. ins told us not to touch a thing...so we will never know. Was at police for 3 months and on News..i had bought ins two days prior to fire, marina required it..i was just going to leave it there a week. i usally never had ins, had 10 boats in 30 yrs...lost about 5k after all said and done...loved the boat but due to my illness cant go fast anymore..so maybe blessing...almost brought it home after marina, would of set house on fire under roof eve..I bought a 88 29pc two weeks after fire...getting new battery charger this week...want to hit 50 mph with it too..at 42 now.
